Refreshing Facebook's token if already logged in

Hi,

From what I understood, to be able to see a player's Facebook friends, I need to make sure that the player's Facebook access token presently stored in Playfab is not expired.

Now, my question is how can I supply the fresh token, if the user has already logged in through a different method (by deviceID for example)? Or do I need instead to always use LoginWithFacebook as my primary mean for logging in?

Thank you

Yes, you would use the LoginWithFacebook call to update the Facebook token we have for your player.

If a player is already logged in to Playfab, say with LoginWithDeviceId, and now they want to use Facebook also so they use a connect option within game, can I call LoginWithFacebook also? Are there issues with logging in a second time during a session?

No, there's nothing preventing you from re-logging into the account.
